Iceni

The Iceni were a great clan of Britons from southern England, with their capital at Camulodunon. From 272 BC, under the leadership of Chieftain Adiatorix, they took over most of the other tribes and allied with the Dumnoni tribe, and eventually conquered the neighboring Demetae, Brigantes, and the Belgic Arrebates, and also formed the Iceni Confederation.

History
The Iceni were a peaceful tribe from the southern British settlement of Camulodunon, experiencing showers of rain in their forested homelands. They were also brave warriors, with brave spearmen as well as chariot riders. Iceni cief Adiatorix was related to many of the neighboring tribes of Britain, and his dream was to create a confederacy between all of the tribes in Britannia and conquer those who did not join. He started out by allying with the Dumnoni in 272 BC, and waged war against the violent Demetae tribe of Moridunon as well as the Belgic Arrebantes (who incessantly tried to conquer Britannia) and the somewhat negative Brigantes tribe of the north.

The Iceni tribe united most of the land by the time of King Prasutagus, who had surrendered to the Roman Empire in 43 AD. As their vassal, he allowed Claudius to be declared co-heir to the Iceni tribe, but when he died in 60 AD, the Romans betrayed him. They flogged his wife Boudicca and raped her daughters, stirring up a pan-British rebellion. The Iceni, Trinovantes, and other Britons swore vengeance and, under the leadership of Boudicca, they annihilated the Legio IX Hispania. However, the British rebellion was crushed by the Romans in 61 AD at the Battle of Watling Street, and Boudicca killed herself. The Iceni tribe were destroyed by the Romans following the suppression of the Revolt of the Iceni, and Britain was under Roman control until 410 AD.
